The Interview (2014) Review

From The Interview Movie Official Website


One of the most controversial films to ever be screened is now available on +Netflix . The Interview, starring best friends James Franco and Seth Rogan as an entertainment interview team looking to be taking seriously as real journalists who score an interview with Kim Jong Un.

Rogan and Franco have become synonymous with stoner comedies ever since doing Pineapple Express together. This film with them two will make fans think of the original stoner duo, Cheech and Chong in The Corsican Brothers or any of their earlier films. As one would expect there is plenty of toilet humor and if you should find yourself snowed in by a potential blizzard, it serves its purpose.

As far as being controversial, it really isn't if you have a sense of humor.  By now most people know the controversy was over threats of what would happen if the film was released to theaters. Luckily, we have the Internet and if you did not want to pay a separate charge to watch the film and have a Netflix account it's worth a stream.  It's funny enough to sit through one time, enjoy and stay warm everyone.

Better Late Than Never Review: All The Phantasm Movies

The Phantasm Series Shows Players Riding Out Their Passions I just recently watched all the Phantasm movies.  I watched the entire franchise in two days after not seeing any of the films since I was a kid. I know things are opening up and the weather is nice, but we're not quite out of the COVID-19 woods yet. Since that is the case I am still re-watching old horror flicks and catching ones I might have missed . The Phantasm series stretches to almost 40 years of horror, beginning in what I feel was the best time for horror films, the 80s. The first one, Phantasm (1979) came out when I was still wet behind the ears, barely a kid. I didn't even set eyes on it until the early 80s. All I could remember about the movie was "The Tall Man,' played by Angus Scrimm in all the films, those flying chrome-plated death spheres, and little dudes in cans.  Along with Scrimm, the film stars Michael Baldwin, Bill Thornberry, and Reggie Bannister. Baldwin plays Mike Pearson, who is the...

Brush Fire and How I Finished My First Novella

Brush Fire is the first of many stories that I hope to write. Photo by Patrick Fore on Unsplash Some years ago, in 2015 I attended the NJ Comic Expo . I was covering it for this site, to gain experience and get my feet wet covering events since it was something I knew I wanted to do for my freelance work. Writing is something I never thought I would get into, but I fell into it through my love for martial arts, reading, and film. It's why I made this site, so I can write about the things I love. By looking for things to write about, I found that my love for reading balances out with my love of writing. Usually, I do one, then the other but a lot of the writing I do is inspired by the work I do for combat sports. I don't want to be a one-trick pony. I want to evolve my writing and I'm always looking for ways to get better.  Some of my favorite stories in various mediums come from Stephen King . So, when I went looking for instruction on how he writes, I found his book ...
